@stnle Amazing!

[YARID Uganda @YARIDUganda]

On World Refugee Day, the theme of the Right to Seek Safety is clearly needed in our world today. With discrimination of asylum seekers in the UK & elsewhere, we need this message more than ever. Please share: “Whoever, wherever, whenever EVERYONE has the right to seek safety.”

@GiulioWolfe That's beautiful!

A must-read article!

I happened to publish a thing (again, sorry). Thanks to the @cha_germany crew for publishing my #humanitarian #digital roadmap beyond 2022, covering #AI, ICRC data hack, #localisation and tech, and the opening of the humanitarian space to tech actors

It is heartbreaking that yet another attempt to evacuate civilians from Mariupol & the delivery life-saving humanitarian aid was blocked today. Civilians are trapped and have no time to wait.

[International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) @ICRC]

We speak to all parties to a conflict, to protect and assist civilians.

Under the Geneva Conventions, this is our mandate.

Last week, our President was in Ukraine. Yesterday, he was in Russia.

Here’s how that dialogue helps those in need 👇

The limbic instinct for vengeance is incredibly strong, which is why turn the other cheek is such a powerful idea

[Filippo Grandi @FilippoGrandi]

Among the responsibilities of those who wage war, everywhere in the world, is the suffering inflicted on civilians who are forced to flee their homes.

The war in Ukraine is so devastating that 10 million have fled — either displaced inside the country, or as refugees abroad.

Two million refugees have left Ukraine since Russia invaded the country, the UN refugee agency said. The total includes one million children, according to Unicef's spokesman, who called it "a dark historical first."

'Humanitarian corridors are not a gift they're at a very minimum what is to be expected'.

The Regional Director of Mercy Corps says civilians are entitled to 'total freedom of movement and protection in conflict'.

A Russian soldier surrendered. Ukrainians gave him tea, food, and let him call his mother on video. I want to cry from how much I love my country.
